Execution of an Instrument Defined

6 GCA § 4303, under Writings.

6 GCA § 4303

The execution of an instrument is the subscribing and delivering it. SOURCE: Former CCP § 1933, as modified.

COL120106

COMMENT: The modification here is the deletion of the words "with or without affixing a seal." With the elimination of any legal difference between sealed and unsealed documents, the reference to a seal is irrelevant. Former CCP § 1934, relative to the ability to compromise or settle a debt without a writing under seal, is deleted since this Article already stated that seals have no effect.
